AZERBAIJAN TO OPEN EMBASSY IN SWEDEN SOON

The embassy of Azerbaijan will open in Sweden by the year-end,
Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov said in a meeting with his Swedish
counterpart Jan Eliasson on Tuesday. Eliasson, who is also the
president of UN’s General Assembly, voiced concerns over the terrible
arsons committed by Armenians across the occupied Azerbaijani
territories. He vowed to continue closely following the developments.
The two discussed the world communitys efforts to settle the
Armenia-Azerbaijan Upper (Nagorno) Garabagh conflict, prospects for
Azeri-Swedish cooperation, the two countries relations within the
European Union and the EU New Neighborhood Policy, and issues
relating to Azerbaijans role in the region and its relations with
neighboring states. Also on the agenda were reforms in the United
Nations, the developments ongoing in the region, as well as the
Middle East crisis and the Israel-Lebanon stand-off. The ministers
also mulled ways of increasing the role of international
organizations, in particular, the UN, OSCE and the EU in reaching a
solution on Garabagh. Mammadyarov said his country is interested in
establishing legal framework to develop bilateral economic relations,
attracting Swedish investment and businesspeople to Azerbaijan,
conducting joint business forums and setting up an inter-governmental
economic commission. Minister Mammadyarov started his official visit
to Sweden on Monday.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
